Q

stages of mitoses

A

interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase, cytokenisis

18
Q

what happens in interphase

A

the cell obtains nutrients and metabolizes them, grows, replicates its DNA in preparation for mitosis

19
Q

what happens in prophase

A

the chromosomes condense and centrosomes move to opposite sides of the nucleus

20
Q

what happens in metaphase

A

the nucleus dissolves and the cell’s chromosomes condense and move together,

21
Q

what happens in anaphase

A

the sister chromatids separate from each other and are pulled towards opposite ends of the cell

22
Q

what happens in telophase?

A

starts to re-establish its normal structures as cytokinesis (division of the cell contents) takes place.

23
Q

what shape is the DNA

A

double helix
or twisting ladder
